South Korean consumers to sue Apple

Apple is facing another legal lawsuit.
Earlier this month, the government of South Korea imposed a fine of three 3 million won ($2,855) on Apple’s division in the country after the controversy that became known as Locationgate, in which any device running iOS 4.0 or higher was tracking the user’s every move and location.
Although $2,855 is very little change for Apple, this issue is going to be more expensive.
About 27,000 South Koreans are banding together to file a class action lawsuit against Apple that would total up to $26 million. That breaks down to roughly 1 million won ($932) per person, which could be considered a little more than a refund on an iPhone.
Apple is already involved in a legal battle with South Korean company Samsung over patent.
